Cannot open sequense in timeline

Hello
I cannot open sequense in timeline. I am using premiere pro cs4 and windows 7.
When I double clic on a sequense it appears in the sourcemonitor instead for in the timeline.
There should bee a shortcut for open sequence in timeline. I have done it once, and I cannot remember the shortcut for it.
Is there anybody that know about such shortcut?????????

Marcus,
Welcome to the forum.
If what you Dbl-click on opens in the Source Monitor, it sounds like you are Dbl-clicking on an Asset and NOT on the Sequence.
In the Project Panel, twirl-open the Bins, and make sure that you ARE Dbl-clicking on a Sequence, and not on an AV Asset. In the Media Type Column, it should say Sequence. Its color should also be different - this will depend on whether you have made a change to the colors.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • I am using the 30-day trial and have 4 days left.  My problem is twofold - 1) I cannot open or see my timeline and don't wish to start over again; it's 15 minutes long

    I am using the 30-day trial and have 4 days left.  My problem is threefold - 1) I cannot open or see my timeline and don't wish to start over again; it's 15 minutes long - video, photos and audio. 2) My timeline has disappeared, so can't edit further  3) Need best way to export to DVD or my MacBook Pro laptop - don't know which settings/items to choose.
    I would appreciate it very much if Apple Support would extend my 30-day trial.  I am working on this project for a Multimedia classroom project at Randolph Community Collge, and am also unemployed so can't afford to buy just yet.  PLEASE help!

    Ok, Tom, I completed the first three steps and everything went fine.  However, I still don't have a timeline, AND above is a screenprint of my timeline and what I presume is meant by the PROJECT.  There is no project.  Now, I can go up to the Event window and Export XML, but it doesn't give me a usable file.  So, first, am I correct re: terminology - the timeline/bottom section is also known as the project folder/manager??
    I've been reading other users strings as well and have tried their tricks as well.  For instance, Eric Martin re: his deleting preference files (6/6), and Norman Jayo's (4/25) lengthy discourse with the "here is the work around" w/ 7 steps.  Again, he mentions closing the PROJECT that is corrupted.  I'm not sure that mine is corrupt as I can play and see my 15-minute audio/view in the view module (upper right).
    So, back to the beginning...

  • Cannot Open New Projects Created in Premiere 8

    My software is Premiere Elements 8
    My system is a Dell Studio 17, i7-720QM, 6MB Cache, 8GB DDR3 SDRAM.
    I ran into a third problem using PE8:
    1.  After I open a New Project in the PE8 Welcome Screen, sometimes the work area refuses to pop up on my screen; no Monitor, no Timeline, no Task pane.  When I relaunch PE8 and try to open the New Project I just created I get a message "...cannot open projects created with Premiere Pro"
    Has anyone experienced this?  Do I simply reload the software?  I recently downloaded the PE8.0.1 patch.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    I too had the same issue - along with an inability to (re)open video projects.  I did a few things.
    As long as I created the project using the DV - "Standard 48kHz" setting, it worked.  Selecting "Widescreen 48kHz" allowed me to save the project but I was unable to open it, receiving the error you are getting about needing to use Pro.
    The second issue is an inability to open an existing project.  Premiere launches, a progress bar shows "loading....1%...100%" - then nothing happens.  The workspace is empty and all menu options are disabled.
    First - install 8.01, and reboot!   The installer doesn't indicate that you need to.  I continued to have the same problems until I rebooted.
    Second - upgraded the ATI drivers from the Dell website.  Apparently my 2-week old Dell XPS-16/i7 laptop came with drivers from 2009 - go figure.
    To recap, 8.01 (+reboot) fixed the "need Pro to open" issue
    Updating ATI driver from Dell website fixed the "can't open existing project" issue.
    And while on the Dell website you'll notice lots of drivers that need updating.  I did them all.

  • Can't open Canvas and Timeline

    When I open a project, I see the Browser and Viewer. The Canvas and Timeline don't open.
    Under Window, command 2 & 3, canvas and timeline, respectively, are dimmed so I cannot click on them.
    How do I open canvas and timeline.

    Double click a sequence in your browser.

  • Cannot Open Premiere Keyboard Shortcuts

    I cannot open Keyboard Shortcuts on Premiere v8 on Cloud (just installed yesterday!) - I get no dialog box when I go to Premiere Pro -> Keyboard Shortcuts. Nothing. I am on Mac OS 10.8.3 and cleared my Cloud Sync settings, to no avail. What I am trying to do is customize my shortcuts to enable a dang marker on a clip within a timeline, since I hear that's the only way it can be done. Thank You!  Meg

    Hi Meg,
    Trashing preferences usually solves this issue. See this link: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/preferences.html#change_preferences

  • Cannot open old iMovie project

    I have an old iMovie project from 2008 that I cannot open.
    If I double-click it, terminal opens.
    Recommended applications are Textwrangler, Terminal.... not really the right thing to watch a movie.
    Final Cut Pro X cannot read the file, because it's in the "bundle" format. Quicktime is also grayed out.
    Is this some weird format that is no longer readable by anything? Or can I turn it into an .mp4 file?
    Thanks.

    iMovie doesn't support importing one iMovie project to another. When we try, we get exactly the error you quoted.
    You can, however, import all the Timeline video and audio as a single clip to a new project. Or you can drag files from the Media folder of the project to the Timeline of a NEW project.
    In the Finder, Control-click on the project icon and choose Show Package Contents from the popUp menu. You'll see the movie "Timeline Movie.mov" in the window that opens. You want to import that movie to a new project, or import selected files in the Media folder.
    To import, drag the file to the Timeline of a NEW iMovie project. If importing the Timeline Movie, everything on the Timeline of the original project will arrive as a single clip in the new project.
    If the project failed on the external drive, it may be because the disk does not use the disk format required by iMovie. Use Disk Utility to check the disk format, which must be "Mac OS Extended". If it's not that format, use Disk Utility to reformat the drive. (Which will erase all the files on the drive, so make backups.)

  • I had Microsoft Office installed in my Macbook Air by one of the technicians in the store, it was working fine the first week but after that it started popping a notice saying it cannot verify my suscription online and now I cannot open any documents?

    I just bought a Macbook Air almost a month now. When I bought it, the technician installed Microsoft Office 365 as they were having a promotion at the time. However after a week of using it, it started popping up a notice saying that it cannot verify Microsoft Office. I still managed to open the word document but as of today, it will not open. I took it to the Mac store last week, and they said that there was nothing wrong with it and they could not figure out any problem.
    I don't know what to do and I am in desperate need of help. I cannot open my documents at all and I have my research paper that I need to finish writing. This is very disappointing and extremely stressful for me. If anyone has any suggestions of how this can be fixed, please let me know. I do not want to lose my hard work =(

    Microsoft Office 365 is a subscription - based service. You have to pay for it... and keep paying for it... and paying for it... as in 365 days a year... or lose your hard work.
    Office Home Premium is a mere $10 a month, but a convenient annual subscription is only $100 a year. This is a substantial discount to Microsoft's Office 365 business products ($150 / employee / year).
    Such a deal! Are you not absolutely thrilled?
    Here are some slightly more reasonable alternatives, all of which are compatible with their Office equivalents:
    LibreOffice (donation-supported)
    NeoOffice ($10 but older version is free if you can find it)
    OpenOffice (completely free)
    Numbers ($19.99)
    Pages ($19.99)

  • I installed windows 7 recently and also Adobre reader XI, and now I cannot open any of my previously created pdfs. Every time I get the message: Error opening the file. Access denied. What is going on?

    Recently I had to install windows 7 in my notebook because XP doesn't have more support. Before installing I backed up all my files to my external HD. Now that I instaleed windows 7 and also installed Acrobat Reader XI, I just cannot open any of my pdf files created prior to installing windows 7.
    Looking for help online, I found the solution of security and giving me access as an administrator to all my files, but it still keeps the same...
    Can some one please help me out?? I really need to work on many of this files ASAP.
    Thank you all in advance for you attention,
    Best,

  • I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1.  An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6.  If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates.  If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

  • I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer.?

    I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer in case it wipes everything .

    I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything. This is probably a bug or something that has gone bad with Mac OS X (10.7.2). I have not found any solution for this on the web.

  • Any Mozilla product I install crashes at startup. The first window I see when I open a Mozilla product is the crash reporter. I have tried every possible solution but cannot open anything. It started with firefox. Can anyone please help?

    Hi there, as the question says, I cannot open any Mozilla product. I have tried to install firefox 3.6, older versions of Firefox, Firefox 4.0, Sea Monkey, Thunder Bird and Sun Bird. I have the same problem everytime. I open any of these programs and the first and the only window that appears is the crash reporter. I've tried opening it in Safe Mode and the same occurs. I have tried entirely uninstalling the products incuding the registry keys but no help. I shall post the detailed error reports, if they help solving this issue. Can you kindly look into this and find a solution as I use all of these Mozilla products and my life has been a hell since they've ben down.

    They both work if I start them in safe mode with everything enabled.

  • What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

    what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

    My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
    You may need to go back and start over.  Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

  • I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP

    I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

  • HT201412 I cannot open the month of March 2013 in my iPad3 calendar. I can however see it in the year view for 2013 and I can view the daily and weekly calendars for March 2013. Any ideas what has gone wrong ? Thanks

    I have a new iPad3 and have found I cannot open the month of March 2013 when I tap on it. All other months open OK ! I can see March 2013 in the yearly view and I can open the individual days, and weeks, of March 2013 but I cannot see the whole month in the monthly view. When I try to open the monthly view for March 2013 it returns me to the start screen which shows all the apps etc and closes the Calendar app. Any guidance of what is going wrong and how it can be corrected. Thanks !
